Flavor text taken from The Walking Dead television show Season 4, Episode 8 (and comic book) where Rick, Carl's father, tells him "Don't look back, Carl. Just keep walking." after the destruction of the prison they just escaped and the zombies (walkers) that are overrunning the area.

Seems that these are completely useless

Doesn't appear to have any other use. These Vendor for 75G. Nice little earner for little input. I usually have plenty of Cerulean Pigment being a herbalist - not to mention the herb garden & you're not obliged to make these, just a bit of easy extra gold if you're overflowing with herbs/cerulean pigment.

You get the same thing if you actually combine 2 of them before expiring. They can be traded but not mailed and yes, in the end, they're only good for vendoring.

So, the only difference is that you get twice as many merchant orders than you normally get after letting them expire.

So, you can "make" a partial receipt using Cerulean pigment, then can combine two identical receipts (which expire in 24 hours) to make a Merchant Order. The Merchant Order is a blue item (which does not expire). As a blue item, I'm surprised that the Merchant Order is only good as vendor trash. Trash worth 75 gold, yes, but why isn't the item gray if it doesn't have a use other than vendor trash?

Since the two partial receipts you will receive are random, you may not get 2 "identical partial receipts".If that is the case, you will have to wait until daily reset to make another set (again, using your assigned follower). You may also mail, trade, or auction them.

The point of these Merchant Orders is simply a way to make gold if you have spare Cerulean Pigment.

EDIT: updated for Patch 6.1. Receipts no longer expire.

It looks as if these orders were supposed to be for something, but they completely scrapped the idea. They were probably going to work like Scroll of Wisdoms in MoP.

A little way to increase your chances to get 2 identical ones since they have a 24hour duration you can craft 2 just before reset then 2 just after reset giving you a total of 4 orders and providing you with a slightly higher chance of getting 2 to be identical.

So this is basically using Inscription to make money through forgery. How evil. >:D

With the removal of an expiration, the receipts that combine to make this item can now be put on the AH. I always store mine in the AH for 75 to 150g buyouts until I get 2 and then I combine them.

If I find any in the AH for less then 70g or so I buy them. Anecdotally it seems to be approximately 90% chance to yield the normal 75g version, 5% chance for 25g small version, and 5% chance for 225g large version. I do them every day but did not collect the exact numbers to give a real analysis so take this with a grain of salt.

Unfortunately reduced in value with this morning's pre-expansion patch (7/19/2016) from 75g to 7g 50s. It's probably safe to assume the others have taken a 90% reduction in value also.
